The traditional approach to environmental, health, and safety (EHS) with specific focus on waste management and disposal is outdated. So are the traditional audiences for EHS reporting. Today, the industry is requiring a new set of metrics, performance and execution models, and more.
The public, governments, and customers are demanding more eco-sensitivity and sophistication—as evidenced by the growth of the environmental, social, and governance (ESG) approach. The jury is still out on the pros and cons of ESG and its drivers. However, the drive for more sustainable solutions and long-term improvement world-wide is an agreed-upon force to be reckoned with.
As a result, we must evolve our integrated EHS programs and standard operating procedures (SOPs) to support the evolution of requirements and demands beyond current baselines. The programs and SOPs must all ultimately support a full performance management system requiring support from many other parts of the organization. Our response at Triumvirate Environmental is EHSOne®: a revolutionary and unique master program for safety, compliance, and sustainability, now and into the future.
